"The London O2 shows this week have been cancelled as well as all shows thru June 5 in Switzerland (sic). We ask at this time that we all continue to support the city of Manchester and all those families affected by this cowardice and senseless act of violence.
"Our way of life has once again been threatened but we will overcome this together. Thank you."
